What happens when the government can no longer protect you. What happens when you need protection from the government? What happens when you can no longer protect yourself? You are responsible for your own safety and protection. You may choose to provide that safety by handing the responsibility over to elected officials and paid public workers. This has worked well for many years, and I have nothing against this system. However, with the increased scrutiny of law enforcement officials comes a shortage in those jobs. Now, your decision to sub-contract your safety may have a negative impact. Response times may increase. Investigations may not get solved. So, again, whose job is it to protect you? It’s yours. If you choose not to protect yourself, that is YOUR choice. Your choice to be a sheep should not affect other’s abilities to protect themselves. Look at Clive Bundy and the now the Snake River Ranchers. Without the means to protect themselves, they would have been victims of the government. Without the means to protect yourself, you may be a victim of the same, or of your fellow man. This may be the most absurd statement yet. This is like saying, when the speeding driver sees that everyone else is doing the speed limit, he will slow down. Well no, he’s in a hurry and you are in his way. Just like when a shooter wants to do something…he does. The laws won’t stop him, and neither will disarming yourself.
So are we really concerned about what is killing us? Why not outlaw unhealthy food? Oh, its our right to eat what we want? You don’t say?! If only it were just a “pair” of sheep. Rather than thousands of sheep we really have. You want to protest the police that protect us, then you want to protest the guns that protect us. I don’t think many understand that protection is a right. If you get rid of the police and get rid of the guns, then what are you planning to invite in?
This is why. They know they can’t take us in a fight. Our military is full of people who grew up around guns and are comfortable shooting them. Get rid of that and it erodes a portion of our readiness. Perhaps that gives them enough edge against our young men to win, or to arrive on our shores. Well right now, as you can see from the quote above, they wouldn’t consider it. Our insurgency would put those in the middle east to shame. We would organize and hit them hard. After traveling so far they would be spread thin and be easy pickings for our gun-toting Patriots! But, disarm the populace and no matter how tired they are when they arrive, they will have plenty of time to rest up while we hurl rocks and canned goods at them. Or while we hide in our houses and do as they say to avoid annihilation.
So you wanna take my guns?
men who drafted the rest of the Constitution. And no one is complaining about he protections and freedom it gives you. Especially the 1st^ amendment which allows you to spew your crazy gun-control thoughts. You will soon see when the blood has been shed and the defenseless bodies stacked high. I will do what I must. No matter who is hurt, the collateral damage will be worth it. I will be the change. I will be the revolutionary. I will be the history maker. I will fight. I will be the Lone Wolf.
